Hello everyone,

My sister is interested in getting some games for her 8 year old son (he really wants a GameBoy, but she's decided against that). The biggest impediment is that she's currently running an old Rev B iMac (the original model, after it came out in multi-colors). So, I'm looking for suggestions about where she could buy and download games for her machine that her son would find interesting. Thanks!!
 
Nanosaur & Bugdom.
Burning Monkey Solitaire.
Make sure it's running Mac OS 8.6 or 9, then go shopping on ebay.
You might find Cro-Magnon Racer, too.
He might like Railroad Tycoon II or Civilization II, or even Alpha Centauri.

I know we (Feral) have an bunch of our older games (most of them with demos) that will run on your rev B iMac.

Sheep
Theme Park World
Worms Blast

Should all run, we also have a few that are min spec of 333 which is above your spec but with luck might run (I recommend you try a demo if possible).

Apart from Feral stuff Pangea games made lots of lower spec titles and so do Freeverse. So check them out to.

Feral
Freeverse

Cheers,

Edwin
